Hole In One: Really Good Donuts...In My Sons' Eyes

I am not a donut fan. And with the exception of eating lavender doughnuts at the Doughnut Plant in New York City, I rarely indulge. A donut breakfast in Wellfleet, however, is one of my sons' summer treats.

The Hole In One is both a restaurant and donut shop and has two locations in Orleans and Eastham. By 9:00 on a Sunday morning the Eastham line snaked out the door, but it moved fast as people snatched up homemade donuts. And we got to the front just in time to see them sliding fresh honey glazed yeast donuts into a pan.

The three year old prefered his huge cake like chocolate glazed, but the five year old and I liked the light and tender honey glazed. They have many other varieties, including Whoopeecreme, honeywheat (is that an oxymoron?), and sour cream. It wasn't the Doughnut Plant...but it was also 10 minutes from the National Seashore!
